Default Need advice on lift

Okay I currently have a Rize 8" lift with bilstein 5100 Leveling struts for 10" of lift. My truck just turned 100k miles and will be payed off in one year. Now I bought a 12" Rize kit to put on it. I am debating selling the 8" and the 12" and putting the truck back to stock And either driving it like that a while or selling and buying a newer truck. What do y'all think? This is my daily driver and if I do buy a newer truck I will want to go at least 12" of lift or 2.5 level on 33x12.50

Its funny you brought this up bc I'm debating on this myself. I'm actually browsing stock parts on CL. Still undecided right now.

Why don't you just do a face lift on it. All the newer parts virtually bolt right up.

My theory has always been, once it's paid off its cheaper to fix and maintain then have a new truck payment every month.

No truck payment is key at the same time it's up to you on if you want to start over. Seems like alot of work to start all over. I'm waiting for the 2015 f150
